21:27:13  Molly  *dinner passed pleasantly, and fairly quietly. Afterwards, a few of the guests remain in the dining room, talking and drinking. spotting the empty glasses, Molly stands and refills them all*
   21:27:32  Evie  "Thanks love" *Evie says as she takes her glass* "I think this is my last drink though-since i do plan to see th sunset tonight" *She smiles*
   21:29:12  Molly  *Molly nods, and turns to Rebecca, goblet held out* 'it has been a lovely day, and so the sunset should be beautiful. Perhaps I might join you?'
   21:31:26  Evie  *Her smile stays* "I don't mind"
   21:31:35  Rebecca  "Please..." *She holds out her glass*
   21:32:47  Molly  *molly hands it over, and puts her own goblet in front of where she was sat* Morgan, would you prefer port, brandy or wine?
   21:33:44  Morgan  *Morgan looks up mometarily* Brandy please, m'lady
   21:35:53  Molly  *molly nods, and turns back to the table, pouring his drink* I believe I have enough fabric to make a new dress on the voyage back...
   21:36:45  Evie  "Oh? What material is it?"
   21:38:23  Molly  *Molly comes back to Morgan, handing him his drink carefully* 'There we are...' *she looks at Evie* Red, satin, and a panel of black lace...
   21:39:10  Evie  " i bet it will look beautiful Molly, at the milliners there was a dress with red satin and black lace-it looked beautiful"
   21:40:04  Morgan  *Morgan takes the drink, frowning slightly* 'thank you'
   21:42:05  Molly  'I doubt it will be anywhere near the quality of Mr Jameson's work, but it will give me something to do... and I fancy having new dresses, for the future... ' *she smiles*
   21:42:06  Rebecca  *Rebecca studies the depths of her glass quietly*
   21:44:01  Evie  "Im sure it will look just as beautiful molly, and theres nothing wrong with a few more dresses anyway" *she giggles*
   21:45:37  Molly  *Molly laughs softly* 'Though I hope that the Rose will make a profit, I am not fool enough to plan only for bought dresses. Fine as they are, I think I am so used to making my own that it would seem strange to only have bought dresses...
   21:46:29  Evie  "I suppose it is something to do if you have free time too?"
   21:47:38  Molly  *Molly nods* Though in truth, I am unsure how much time I will have, for the Rose might well be a gift beyond my expectation, and abilities...
   21:48:33  Evie  "I'm sure you will find no struggle in finding help off numerous people"
   21:49:37  Rebecca  "What help is it you seek?"
   21:50:26  Molly  'I know that in terms of running her, there will be many who can aid me, but I just hope I can do her potential justice... I know nothing about ships, or anything really, apart from running a house'
   21:52:39  Evie  "i imagine a ship is more or less the same as a manor to run, except when it comes to technical details and jobs of the ship, like a captain...maybe...i don't know"
   21:52:59  Molly  'It is not so much help as confidence and wisdom in my decisions for her...' *Molly sips hr brandy slowly, savouring its warmth.*
   21:54:11  Rebecca "Ah...confidence comes from within I fear..."
   21:55:27  Molly  'I think, like many things in life, confidence is easy to fake. but very few of us truly have it. How can we ever be sure we have made the right choice?' *Molly sighs*
   21:55:52  Evie  "i think ignorance may stem into that..."
   21:56:40  Molly  'May be...'  
   21:57:03  Rebecca "That's what confidence is...absolute belief in your actions and the will to make it work..."
   22:00:26  Molly  *Molly smiles wryly* 'Unfortunately, it is the absolute belief that I struggle with. The Rose deserves to be used well and wisely'
   22:01:49  Morgan  'I'm sure the captain and the colonel have some ideas for that'
   22:02:17  Rebecca "And you believe that someone other than you can do that better?"
   22:03:49  Rebecca "No doubt...they are seafaring types after all..."
   22:03:49  Molly  'Quite possibly. Amazing how quickly life can change, is it not?'
   22:04:00  Molly  *Molly sips her drink*
   22:04:27  Morgan  *Morgan hums for a moment* 'It takes but a moment'
   22:06:36  Molly  *Molly looks puzzled*
   22:06:37  Evie  *Evie takes a sip of her drink, her smile fades* "Yes, some split second actions can change a persons life forever....and the people around them"
   22:07:47  Molly  'I wonder that in every persons life there is a moment where suddenly, eveything changes, a word, an action, and everything is different...' *Molly fiddles absent-mindedly with her lower lip*
   22:09:25  Rebecca *quietly studies the depts of her glass*
   22:10:00  Morgan  'It doesn't take a lot... one moments indecision or some stupid action'
   22:12:42  Molly  *Molly picks up her glass, and drinks her brandy, looking at the floor* Not every change is a good one, but fortunately, the coming of the Rose in to my life is, at least to my mind, a change for the better, not just for me, but for us all. I dearly hope you will all travel on the Rose if you ever wish to...
   22:15:21  Evie  *She stares at her glass and sighs* "Yes quite depressing the fact that even if you are careful someone elses stupid decision can effect your life..and yes Molly, i would love to if i can get the time off"
   22:19:04  Molly  *Molly looks up at Evie, eyes wide* I... I... ummmmm... I am unsure how long it will be before I am settled in the village, but you will visit me there, in your free time, won't you?
   22:19:49  Evie  "Of course i will-your the only one i can speak to if i have a problem" *she looks up and gives a quick smile to Molly before sipping her glass again*
   22:21:02  Molly  It is always good to have a friend with whom you can share everything... they are hard to find, and harder to keep
   22:22:51  Rebecca *shifts a little in her chair* "Do you think I might have the brandy back?"
   22:24:41  Molly  *Molly stands, and fetches the brandy, putting it beside Rebecca* I had a friend I was close to as a child, though we are no longer so.... *she sits back down, swirling the brandy in the goblet*
   22:25:45  Evie  "What happened?"
   22:26:51  Molly  *Molly looks slightly redder than normal* We lost contact when I left my parents house, and have not spoken since...
   22:31:10  Evie  *Evie continues to look down* "I never had a best friend really....to be quite blunt, the area i resided in, most of the children died before the age of 5, my family seemed to be a bit lucky in taht sense"
   22:33:01  Molly  I think my family were probably less lucky than most with infant mortality, but I was fortunate enough to have Eliza to take the place of the sister I may have had...
   22:34:14  Evie  "Who is Eliza?"
   22:35:51  Molly  *Molly smiles* My best friend from childhood. She and I used to milk the cows together, and would talk about how when we grew up and married, we would live near each other and our children would be friends...
   22:36:36  Evie  *She looks embarressed at the question she just asked* "Well, its not too late to try and find her is it?"
   22:37:29  Molly  *Molly looks quickly to Morgan, before looking away* I do not need to find her... She lives in Lower Tawstock, and is now married
   22:39:02  Evie  *She tilts her head in confusion* "Why not contact her if you know where she lives? If you do not know the exact place im sure it will not take long, or you could enquire at the local postmaster maybe?"
   22:39:19  Morgan  *Morgan speaks very quietly, voice even* 'Leave it, Eiblinn'
   22:41:03  Molly  *Molly looks at the floor* It is complicated... perhaps one day our friendship will be renewed, for I should wish to have her company again...  
   22:42:19  Evie  *Evie takes a big drink from her glass, keeping her gaze on molly* "fair enough" *She stays quiet and looks into her glass, her mind travelling to elsewhere*
   22:43:18  Morgan  *Morgan smiles briefly at Evie* I wonder if I might have my brandy topped up? *Morgan holds out his goblet, still mostly full*
   22:44:38  Molly  *Molly sips hers, watching the others*
   22:45:28  Evie  *Evie catches his gaze and looks in complete confusion, staring at him thinking to herself.* Did he just....no he couldn't of...at me?....or did he? *She suddenly realises she is staring and quickly goes red and reaches for the brandy, topping his glass up neatly, she places it back down where it was in the first place and looks down at the floor*
   22:47:16  Molly  *Molly looks to Rebecca* Did you have any close friends as a child? Do you think that your friendships as a child were stronger than those you have as an adult?
   22:53:44  Rebecca *Rebecca looks up from her thoguhts with a start* "Friendship? No...sadly I did not..."
   22:55:25  Rebecca "So I would say that No...my adult friendships are stronger. I have friends now that I would and indeed 'do' trust with my life..."
   22:57:22  Molly  You are a very lucky woman, such friendships are rare, at least in my experience... there are very few in this world I would trust my life with.
   22:57:46  Evie  "indeed"
   22:58:37  Evie  "The sun is going to set within moments" *she stands up and walks upto the deck, looking in the direction of the sun*
   22:58:46  Evie  ((dont have to follow btw ^^))
   23:04:00  Morgan  *Morgan watches Evie leave, contemplating following*
   23:04:26  Molly  ((can ya c&P from what I last said))
   23:05:01  Morgan  Bex/Evie says: "indeed" Bex/Evie says: "The sun is going to set within moments" *she stands up and walks upto the deck, looking in the direction of the sun* Bex/Evie says: ((dont have to follow btw ^^))  
   23:05:53  Molly  *Molly stands, taking her glass, and follows*
   23:09:57  Morgan  *Morgan stands and follows the two ladies out*
   23:10:07  Molly  *Molly looks back to the others* Would you like to join us?
   23:10:08  Rebecca *Rebecca looks at her mostly full glass for a moment, then riaises it and downs it in one* "I think I will leave you...if you will excuse me..." *Rebecca rises, looking thoughtful and a little melancoly*
   23:10:09  Molly  *Molly smiles at her* If that is as you wish, of course...
   23:10:34  Molly  Good night Rebecca
   23:11:23  Rebecca *Nods quietly looking a little sad and thoughtful* "Good night"
   23:12:18  Molly  *Molly heads up on to the deck, standing within talking distance of Evie, but not right beside her. She looks out of the deep reds and oranges of the sky* Do you think the sunset looks the same from everywhere?
   23:12:26      Twiglet has left the conversation.
   23:14:22  Evie  *Evie is sat on the floor, with her knees up, hugging them, looking at the about to be sunset she speaks with a certain amount of serenity in her voice* "I don't think so, it seems prettier out at sea."
   23:15:11  Morgan  "Its... its different wherever you are"
   23:15:58  Evie  *She smiles to herself when hearing Morgan's voice* "Has lady Rebecca decided not to join us?"
   23:16:17  Molly  But how can you truly know, for you can never be in two places at one moment....
   23:17:32  Evie  "I do not know, i don't think something this beautiful would be the same to everyone, it is unique to every person, i think its part of its beauty, since you cannot focus on all of the sunset at one, and truelly take in everything"
   23:19:35  Molly  *Molly smiles* Like people themselves... where one person is person is beautiful to some, they might not be to others... or at least beautiful in a different way
   23:21:58  Evie  "Yes, and some people do not seem beautiful to anyone at all" *She looks down at herself with her self-judgemental eyes, then continues to look at the sunset, concentrating more on the sky surrounding the dim glowing orb, then the actual orb itself* "Also like a sunset-i have heard many say that a sunset...in their words... is boring, or not interesting"
   23:25:23  Molly  I believe that beauty is far more part of who a person is inside, rather than how they look,
   23:27:22  Molly  Although, I have been known to notice a handsome face before a personality before... *Molly looks out at the sea, and the red sparkles on the tips of the waves*
   23:28:44  Evie  *Evie softly laughs* "Yes, sometimes a face can catch your eye...yet i find a personality that connects with mine, stays in my mind much lnoger"
   23:29:46  Molly  I am inclined to agree... I would imagine the right combination of both could be devestating to one's attention span.
   23:32:46  Evie  *She laughs and turns round to Molly* "Ahhh...so now you know the cause if i may seem to lack attention at times" *She winks and turns back round*  
 23:33:39  Molly  *Molly looks intrigued* Evie, have you set your hat at one of our travelling companions?!
   23:34:58  Evie  *She giggles* "How could i _ever_ reveal such a personal thing? *She turns around and playfully gasps*
   23:36:19  Molly  *Molly's eyes light up* Oh Evie, how could you _ever_ keep it from me?!
   23:38:16  Evie  *She laughs loud* "How could you ever keep a terrible friend like me!?" *She motions a 'swoon' action, then the final bit of the sunset catches her eye* "Ooo-only a few seconds left of it now"
   23:41:15  Molly  *Molly looks out at the sunset with a smile, watching the sun sink below the horizon. She smiles at Evie, then Morgan* I am glad we have had the chance to watch the sunset together, for I think it is possible that our lives pulls us far apart in the time to come...
   23:43:50  Molly  *she turns back to Evie* I am unsure how much time I shall be in Tawstock in the months to come, for I shall have many things I must do...
   23:45:56  Evie  *She looks up to the star filled night sky, lying back and putting her arms behind her head she smiles* "What a lovely thing to be greeted to after a sunset.....I suppose if i ever feel lonely, i know that probably the same sunset i will be looking at, your gaze will also look at....kind of comforting in a way"
   23:48:19  Molly  *Molly looks at the newly arrived stars, her voice quiet* I do not wish my absence to pain you, but I feel it is necessary, for me, and for the Rose... I shall return to Tawstock frequently, but it might be a little while before I settle there, possibly even a year or so...
   23:48:42  Evie  "and do not let my feeling pain you and potentially effect your decision....take as long as you need Molly"
   23:50:00  Molly  *Molly looks up, not taking her eyes from the sky* I will take as little tme as possible, for I am eager to settle down and start my life
   23:54:07  Molly  I shall think of you both often while I am away
   23:55:41  Morgan  you think you will be travelling for an entire year?
   23:57:52  Molly  *Molly looks to Morgan* I can not be certain as yet, because I am not certain what I wish to do with the Rose, but whatever I do, I will probably need to make a few trips with her. I may well be wrong, and need to be gone no more than a few weeks...
   23:59:12  Morgan  *Morgan nods slowly*  
   23:59:56  Molly  *Molly smiles* I shall return, and you migh find yourself so busy that you do not even notice my absense
    00:01:30  Morgan  impossible
    00:03:13  Molly  *she laughs softly* You will soon find yourself accustomed to the lack of my presense, for I can scarce stay living in Lady Catherine's house forever!
    00:03:34  Morgan  *Morgans speaks quietly* No, I know
    00:04:10  Evie  "i may accept you not being there, but i will hate it..."
    00:04:26  Evie  "well, not accept it..be aware you are not there more like
    00:07:19  Molly  *Molly's eyes fill with tears* I shall find it strange to not reside under the same roof as you both, for you have been by my side every minute of every day. I shall not be far away, and perhaps if you can be spared by Lady Catherine, you will dine with me sometimes? I can not promise my house will be anythin other than a tiny cottage, mind you.  
    00:08:42  Evie  "of course i will"
    00:12:25  Evie  *Evie stands up and dusts herself off* "I must retire now, i am very tired-if you need me wake me up, no matter what the time is" *She addresses both Morgan and Molly, she courtsies* "G'Night" *with taht she walks off to her shared chamber"
    00:13:30  Molly  *Molly watches her go, covering her mouth with her hand to hide a yawn*
